Foreign Ministry announcement on the deadly bombing attack in Egypt

Shocked at the deadly bombing attack that took place at the Coptic church of St. George, in the city of Tanta, Egypt, we unequivocally condemn terrorism in all its forms.

Such instances of barbaric, blind violence will not impinge on the tolerant and multi-faith nature of Egyptian society.

Greece stands at the side of its friend Egypt and addresses its deep condolences to the victims’ loved ones, the Egyptian people and their government.
